Temple Bar is the place where George and Edie run to when they realize that taints are in the area. However, they mistakenly run towards the Temple Bar Dragon, who proceeds to attack the children. The Dragon ignites the area with its fire, trapping the children in a column of flames. After the Dragon slashes Geroge's arm and brands him as a maker, the Gunner appears and wrestles with the dragon. This gives George and Edie the chance to escape from Temple Bar.
